Humanitarian office to issue detailed figure on IDPs

    NAIROBI

    The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) in the DRC has announced that it will publish detailed findings regarding internally displaced people (IDPs) at the end of June. The report will be the culmination of more than two years of data collection from a wide variety of sources throughout the DRC, including OCHA’s own field offices. OCHA hopes that the data will enable the categorisation of IDPs according to the criteria presented in its Consolidated Appeal for 2001, and plans to give special attention to the issues of return migrations and reintegration efforts.
